Good to see you, Hopeful Camel!

Under pressure. Everything is spinning out of control.
Set up a psych appt. for next week (earliest available). I've gone and done it again. Waited till things got bad. My life has become surreal. I don't even know how to tell her how much so. One aspect I won't even be able to talk about. Might be paranoia. Might be I just can't deal with reality.

1/2 day of work this week isn't helping. I'm drowning.

Well because I slept well, I was able to get through work a heck of a lot easier. So that's a plus. Then I took my first shower in like three days. Mainly because I was out of a med and needed to get that refill ASAP. I just binged on junk food (five guys), so now I feel a little guilty, but eh...it is what it is. Time for bed and some crazy dreams! I'm hoping to get another full night of sleep!

I made it to the gym and stayed for a while. After a nap I knitted then colored in my mandala book.

Started on lithium today, made me feel just a little bit light headed but this feeling passed quickly. Got home and rowed 6.2Km on my erg. Feeling absolutely drained physically. But also calm and relaxed. Looking forward to lighting some incense and reading a book before turning in for the night.

pretty much an average check- in for me.

no sleep last night, but started a new book- the perfect holiday by cathy kelly (it's a short read, and something i can cope with)

my water feature arived today for my room (but it's not working), so it has to go back.

it was meant to be a early birthday treat, but oh well. everything i order seems to be broken, and i do get fairly depressed about it

this morning watched the night mare world of HG wells which was actually rather scary

now just listening to music and on here

I'm a bit agitated today. Part of it has to do with my husband losing his car keys for the second time this week. Part of it is akathisia. My mood is depressed today. Anxiety is moderate.

Managed to drag my *** out of bed and come to work, taking this 1 hour at a time, I really need to make it through the day. Everyone is pretty much leaving me alone which is good. Maybe I'll feel like be social next week

Ok day so far today. Soooooo happy the work week is over.

Kind of upset because I haven't talked to my boyfriend since Tuesday. Normally, we talk almost everyday. Not sure if I should be worried. All day I've been wondering if he is ok. Or maybe he wants to break things off with me. Probably just sick of me.

Day 2 of lithium. Going alright, no noticeable side effects so far. Had to unexpectedly host a meeting at work today which was kind of frustrating because it was very last minute and disorganized. Been feeling very angry about my weight and continuing to do relatively intense cardio workouts. Want to buy some new guitar gear once my paycheck comes through.

I started my day off at the gym. Then I picked up some of my meds. Me and my oldest daughter spend some time together. We walked around one of our local malls and stop by Starbucks. I found a pair of shoes that would be good for me to workout with. I plan to go back and get them when I can. I received some funds for food so I bought a few groceries. I'll looking forward to sleeping in this weekend

There was a relatively mild inconvenience at work today that I got sort of irrationally worked up about -- a coworker couldn't cover a meeting for me so I had to reschedule a pdoc appointment later in the month. I constantly help her with **** and I thought that this was a pretty minor request. Bleh whatever, not really a big deal just kind of frustrating.

I got in a pretty intense cardio workout after work. Trying to get to 155 lbs or lower by the end of February. I'm at 162 right now so that should be a very obtainable goal.

My car would not start yesterday. Both key fobs did not work. It turned out that both batteries died at the exact same time on the exact same day. What are the chances? I am glad that it was only $14 in batteries and nothing else

Had a pretty good morning. Left work early and took my son to his pdoc appointment. Have gotten a little irritable in the last couple hours, though I think there may be a real reason for that. I'm trying to chill back out.
